Why haven't I heard of this before ?
Natural Vision Training and the Bates Method have been attacked, threatened and
ridiculed by the vision care professionals for over seventy-five years. Even today
there are new reports that come out strongly against the whole idea that it is
possible to regain your eyesight through vision training.
It is universally accepted that to become a good athlete you need to train your
body. Nobody expects to be able to win a race without adequate training. Olympic
quality sports require not only physical but mental training in order to even qualify
for the team. To maintain good health, you need to pay attention to your diet,
exercise regularly as well as maintaining a positive attitude.
Today, during the final years of the 20th century, we have come to a point where
there is room for diversity and the interest in alternative therapies have never been
stronger. Vision training offers an effective and inexpensive way to regain natural
clear vision and how to maintain this for the rest of ones life.
In the preface to "Eye Education by Bates
Method", Margaret Corbett, who studied with
William Bates, wrote:

anteroom of the court waiting for a chance to "have their say"…
The court had no alternative but to dismiss the case against Mrs.
Margaret Darst Corbett. And the publicity of it served her well. A
number of the jurors and many of the spectators signed up for
Mrs. Corbett's course.
The Los Angeles trial revealed that there had been similar
prosecutions of adherents of this new teaching throughout the
country (USA) over a period of years.
